Arsenal’s Alexandre Lacazette celebrates with his teammates after scoring his side’s third goal.
West Ham, at that point, looked certain to gain the win that would have taken them level on points with fourth-placed Chelsea thanks to goals by Jesse Lingard, Jarrod Bowen and Tomas Soucek. Either side could have won the game at the death but West Ham will rue an opportunity to improve their record against Arsenal which now reads two wins in their last 29 meetings.
“I’m very disappointed because I cannot accept my team to play the way we did in periods in the first half,” Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said. “I expect we play at the level we did afterwards. We got close to winning and I think we deserved to win it but the first part really worried me.” The visitors then switched off completely when Lingard rolled a quickly-taken freekick to Bowen whose shot embarrassed Bernd Leno at his near post.
